Tunis Protest Erupts After Eastern Libyan Authorities Halt Gaza-Bound Aid Convoy At Sirte Gate

A pro-Palestinian demonstrator raises his fist while chanting slogans, as others wave Tunisian and Palestinian flags during a demonstration organized by the Coordination of Joint Action for Palestine that brings together hundreds of pro-Palestinian activists and protesters in Tunis, Tunisia, on June 14, 2025, to protest the Eastern Libyan authorities' halt of the Maghreb Resilience Convoy (also known as the Steadfastness Convoy) at the Sirte gate in Libya. The organizers of the convoy say that several participants are assaulted and detained by security forces loyal to Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar. The Resilience Convoy (also called Soumoud Convoy or Sumud Convoy) is a Maghreb humanitarian land convoy traveling from Tunisia, through Libya, to the Rafah Border Crossing between Palestine and Egypt. Comprising around one thousand five hundred pro-Palestinian participants and activists, the convoy aims to reach Rafah in southern Gaza in a bid to lift the Israeli siege and deliver humanitarian aid amid the ongoing Israeli offensive in the Strip. The Convoy of Resilience is scheduled to join the 'Global March to Gaza' movement in Rafah, Egypt, on June 15. The organizers of the Global March to Gaza say that hundreds of participants arriving in Cairo have their passports taken at a checkpoint and are detained and deported to their home countries in Europe and North Africa.
